Research Overview

We live in the Anthropocene, where global ecology is dominated by human activity. My research seeks to understand how fishes respond and adapt to abrupt environmental change across levels of biological organization. Work in my lab addresses this overarching question through the combination of field, laboratory, meta-analysis, and modeling approaches.

Additionally, I have pending proposals to explore aspects of the pike invasion to Southcentral 成人影片 and to apply stage-specific salmon life cycle models to Western 成人影片 Chinook populations.
